Thanks for the info. . .but now I have one better yet. . . I was looking on e bay. . .you can buy a 10.4 inch LCD touch screen that has high res and will work with all operating sys. (other than Vista) and comes w/ the drivers so you can operate your laptop or PC with your finger on the screen. . . it costs about $250 and is 12 V. . . still doesn't solve the weather problem but I was thinking of building a plexiglass "box" for it that could flip up and down and latch closed. . . that way you could still view your heading if the waves kick up. . .
